GETTING STARTED
Battery installation
Since the remote control will be used for many of this unit’s
control operations, you should begin by installing the
supplied batteries.
1
Turn the remote control over and remove the battery
compartment cover by sliding it in the direction of
the arrow.
2
Insert the batteries (AA, R6, UM-3 type) according to
the polarity markings on the inside of the battery
compartment.
3
Close the battery compartment cover.
Battery replacement
If you notice that the remote control must be used closer to
the main unit, the batteries are weak. Replace both
batteries with new ones.
Notes
Use AA, R6, UM-3 batteries.
Be sure the polarities are correct. (See the illustration inside
the battery compartment.)
Remove the batteries if the remote control is not to be used for
an extended period of time.
If the batteries leak, dispose of them immediately. Avoid
touching the leaked material and avoid contact with clothing,
etc. Clean the battery compartment thoroughly before
installing new batteries.

CONNECTIONS
Connecting to the USB port (1)
If your computer has a USB port, connect it to this unit’s
USB terminal using the supplied USB cable, as shown
below.
A single USB connection is all that’s required to listen to
audio from your computer on this unit, feed audio from an
external source connected to this unit to your computer,
and control this unit remotely from your computer, using
the supplied Application Software.
If your computer doesn’t have a USB port, you can still
connect it to this unit using the analog or digital input, but in
this case you cannot use this unit’s Application Software.
Note
Connect the USB cable when installing the USB driver software
on your computer. Refer to the section “INSTALLING USB
DRIVER AND APPLICATION SOFTWARE”.
Connecting to analog inputs (2)
Connect the analog audio outputs on your computer or a
PC sound card to this unit’s ANALOG PC IN.
Use a commercially available pin-plug connection cord for
connection, and be careful not to mix up the left and right
connections.
Connecting your computer
Audio from your computer can be fed to this unit using any of the following connectors: USB, DIGITAL PC COAX IN, DIGITAL
PC OPT IN, or ANALOG PC IN. If you use all of these connectors for connection, you can select the connector(s) to use on
this unit’s front panel or the remote control.

To play DVD-Video discs encoded with Dolby Digital or
DTS, your computer must have a DVD-ROM drive and
DVD-Video decoder board, which should be connected to
this unit via the DIGITAL PC COAX IN or DIGITAL PC OPT
IN.
Use a commercially available pin-plug cord for connecting
to the DIGITAL PC COAX IN, and use a commercially
available optical fiber cable for connecting to the DIGITAL
PC OPT IN.
Note
The DIGITAL PC OPT IN has priority over the DIGITAL PC
COAX IN, so if you connect to both inputs, the signal received at
the DIGITAL PC OPT IN is used.
Protective Caps
When connecting to an optical connector, remove its protective
cap first. When an optical connector is not being used, replace its
cap to prevent dust entering the connector.

If you wish to record analog sound signals inputted

Digital connections
If you wish to record digital sound signals inputted to this
unit, connect the optical digital input of an MD recorder or a
DAT deck to this unit’s DIGITAL OPT OUT.
Notes
When playing an ordinary CD on this unit following
playback of a CD or an LD encoded with DTS, some
operations, such as resetting the input selector keys, may be
required.
Even if connected to this unit with a digital connection, some
CD, LD, and DVD players may make this unit fail to decode
DTS or produce noise. This is because certain digital output
data processing by such a player results in DTS-encoded data
errors that cause playback failure although the same data
processing may cause only a slight change in volume or in
frequency response in normal digital sound.
When an error occurs in the player’s digital output data
during playback of an LD or CD encoded with DTS,
playback may be disrupted. If this occurs, stop playback and
repower the player.
When digital sound signals from the computer are played,
errors in WAVE signals, etc. may occur resulting in noise or a
playback failure.
: [AP-U70 only]
Notes
Connecting a turntable
A turntable cannot be connected to this unit directly. Use a
commercially available phono equalizer amplifier to connect a
turntable to this unit, or connect a turntable incorporated with a
phono equalizer amplifier.
[AP-U70 only]
The REC OUT OUTPUT and DIGITAL OPT OUT can
be used at the same time since they output signals
independently.

Connecting speakers
[AP-U70 only]
Connect this unit to your speakers with speaker cables
with a proper gauge (keep them as short as possible).
Notes
Use speakers which do not have a built-in amplifier.
Use speakers whose impedance is 6 or more.
Connect the left speaker to the left speaker connector on this
unit and the right speaker to the right speaker connector.
Make sure that the + and – polarity markings of the speaker
cables are observed and set correctly. If these cables are
reversed, the sound will be unnatural and lack bass.
Speaker Cables
Strip 10 mm of insulation off the end of each speaker
cable, and then twist the bare wires to prevent lose
strands, which can cause short circuits.
How to connect:
1 Press and hold the speaker connector levers.
2 Insert the bare ends of the speaker cables into the
terminal holes.
3 Then release the levers.
* Try pulling gently on each cable to make sure that it is
secure.

[DP-U50 only]
To reproduce sound signals inputted to this unit over
speakers, connect this unit to speakers with a built-in
amplifier, a mini-component system, etc., or connect this
unit to speakers by using an external power amplifier.
Connect the analog inputs of speakers with a built-in
amplifier, etc. to this unit’s PRE OUT using a commercially
available analog pin-plug cord or a pin (stereo)-to-mini
(stereo) plug cord.
Note
The level of signals outputted from the PRE OUT varies by the
use of the volume control on the front panel or the VOLUME
keys on the remote control. So, it is recommended to adjust the
speaker output level on this unit or the remote control, and fix
the volume of speakers with a built-in amplifier, etc. at a
certain level.
Adding a subwoofer
Bass performance can be extended by connecting a
subwoofer to this unit’s SUBWOOFER OUTPUT using a
commercially available audio pin-plug cord.
The use of a subwoofer is also suitable for reproducing the
effects of sound field programs.
Note
The SUBWOOFER OUTPUT is a line-level output. Use a
subwoofer which has its own built-in power amplifier, such as
the Yamaha YST-SW45.

Use magnetically shielded speakers and subwoofer. Using non-

Plugging in this unit
After completing all connections, plug the AC power
cord into a household AC outlet.
Note
Unplug the AC power cord from the AC outlet if this unit is not
to be used for a long period of time.
(U.S.A. model)
Recommended Speaker Placement
For best performance, place the left and right speakers on
either side of your computer monitor, as shown below, and
position them so that their fronts are flush with the monitor
screen. To get the best from the sound field programs and
surround effects, the left and right speakers and the
listener should be positioned so as to form a triangle with a
3:4 ratio, so if, for example, the speakers are 60 cm (23.5”)
apart, the listener should be 80 cm (31.5”) away from each
speaker.
If your system includes a subwoofer (YST-SW45, etc.),
place it on the floor.

sound output destination, disconnect the USB cable
connecting this unit and the Macintosh.
When using headphones with this unit connected to the USB
port on the Macintosh, use the headphone jack on this unit,
not the jack on the Macintosh.
Since the Macintosh issues a start-up sound at power-on
before the sound signal via the USB connection is activated,
the start-up sound cannot be issued via the USB connection.
To play the start-up sound via this unit, you need a separate
analog connection between this unit and the Macintosh.
(When USB MIX is set to “ON” from the Setup Panel of the
Application Software, you can mix the start-up sound via the
analog connection with the same sound via the USB
connection without making any change in the input selector
settings.)
